I will be there!!! I will probably be there the 2nd through the 4th. I have a tent that I just discovered was broken this weekend over a camping trip, but I think I can improvise and "make" it work. I enjoyed my short stay over Memorial Day and meeting you guys. What all do I need to bring? Other than camping gear, food, dive gear, and beer???? Those are the essentials!!

Hi All!
A question: Would it be better to bring a couple of tanks and just get filled there; or just rent the tanks at the lake?

Better to bring tanks. Airfills are pricey $10 a pop. Tank Rental is $15/day.
There are old divers and there are bold divers, but there ain't no old, bold divers.

As for tents some that were there on the 4th were big enough to sleep 3-5 people 
and I posted earlier to the austin brunette that we had a extra tent that had been used once that we were bringing that slept 2-3, 
and stoves and grills I believe we have enough of 
so bring food, water, drinks, and dive 
gear and lets go diving .Athens Scuba park has hot showers 
, hot tub 
, pool, and some interesting things sunk to look at day or night time. 
Wenchie will be in NC wrecki diving that week end. :dltears:
